Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, published in 1846, is a treatise on the deleterious health effects of the common use of tobacco. The author, an early advocate for temperance from alcohol, condemns the widespread but poorly understood effects of tobacco on the body. The author's goal is to alert the public and to dissuade others from using tobacco, especially young people. He claims that tobacco use was far more prevalent among men at the time than the public realized and aims to rectify the situation by detailing the specific ways that tobacco useâ"in its various formsâ"damages both the body and mind. The author cites personal anecdotes, physician observations, and medicinal wisdom to support his arguments and concludes that continued widespread use of tobacco would result in an alarming number of unnecessary deaths and illnesses.
